Summary: COMPLETE Young Thranduil has nightmares in which he dreams his death - one so horrific that in his dreams he kills himself. His parents are not much help. They believe their son is nervous about his approaching passage into adulthood, especially as Thranduil has no idea whom he will ask to teach him about the arts of love on his fiftieth begetting day.

Baradhu, the Captain of The Guard, suggests that Thranduil should face his fears and go on his first long range patrol to the very place where his nightmare occurs. A party of warriors has already left to meet Lord Gildor and his Wanderers and are well overdue to return.

Will Thranduil keep his lifelong friends or will they fall away? Why is Thranduil’s horse named Camel Toe? What is the white stuff over the tree trunks? What is Gildor’s favourite handicraft? What was the origin of the name ‘Legolas’? Just how many eyes does a spider have? What does a spider keep in its larder – a few spiced buns and a pot of jam perhaps?

Summary: Two royal bodyguards sent to escort Legolas to Rivendell test the laws of Mirkwood while testing each other. Targon and Beldor are originally two unnamed characters from my Erestor/Glorfindel fic, 'Mine'. They were caught unawares in a storeroom closet by Erestor. This is their story that led up to that embarrassing moment.Category:FictionCharacters:Erestor, Glorfindel, Legolas, OMC, ThranduilContent: Explicit Sex, SlashChallenge: NoneSeries: NoneChapters: 1 | Completed: Yes | Word count: 11017 | Read count: 2082

Summary: Elrond is a charming flirt with a massive crush who is saving himself for a special first time. I never pictured myself writing this one, but felt perversely attracted to it when I read the prompt. The recipient gave me a softer way out, the choice to go with another less controversial pairing. But after consideration, I fell for this one.

The title, Renacimiento is Spanish. I liked the sound of it and had just watched a Spanish TV show about the Renaissance when I needed a name. (Yes, it also means Renassiance). What is wrong with English or even Quenya? I liked all of the multiple meanings my dictionary gave me for the Spanish word: rebirth, revival, renewal, etc. My hero and POV character Maedhros receives all of those things from his encounters with the intrepid young Elrond. Like Elrond is enriched as well.

Thanks to Ignoble Bard for the Beta. He has been with me all the way through this one from the first rough lines to the last touch up. Thank you also to Lilithlessfair, Pandemonium, and Russandol, who painstakingly went over this and offered their suggestions. I am not always fun to Beta, but I do appreciate how lucky I am to have such wonderful writers and friends willing to give me a hand.Category:FictionCharacters:Elrond, Elros, Maedhros, MaglorContent: NoneChallenge: NoneSeries: NoneChapters: 1 | Completed: Yes | Word count: 8430 | Read count: 1624

Meduseld. The roof shone golden in the sun. He had not appreciated it last time, only listened to Gimli's muttered observations that it didn't look much like a golden hall. Now he knew the gold here was not on the roof.
